First-year Coach Tim DeRuyter’s Bulldog football team achieved one of its goals by closing out the regular season with a 48-15 thumping of Air Force to claim a share of the Mountain West Conference title in Fresno State’s first year in the league.

That victory at Bulldog Stadium Saturday, Nov. 24, brought Fresno State to the conclusion of a 9-3 season. The Bulldogs were 7-1 in Mountain West play, beating co-champion San Diego State, but losing to Boise State, which could also be a co-champion with a victory over Nevada.

And the Bulldogs are bowl eligible with speculation about an appearance in Honolulu or Las Vegas later in the year.

Campus photographer Cary Edmondson captured the images before, during and after one of Fresno State’s most important victories in years. View photos by clicking on the photo above.
